Abstract

The transfer efficiency between a transmission coil and a reception coil for wireless power transfer via magnetic resonance is a function of the orientation between the coils. When two coils share a single axis, the transfer efficiency is maximal, but otherwise the efficiency becomes lower. In this paper, a wireless power transfer system via magnetic resonance using a transmission coil array is proposed to improve the transfer efficiency. The transmission coils of the array are excited with appropriate phase weights by transmission circuit, according to the orientation among the transmission coils and the receiving coil. The effect of the proposed system is confirmed by simulation by a method of moment and measurement using a vector network analyzer.
